i need help identifying a case.

 

my uncle built his mom a computer in late 90's for general stuff and now she gave that computer to me 

i asked my uncle about the case (because i wanted to build into it) he got it from a friend who left the area a long time age

basically we have no info on it, there are not any logos on it anywhere other then made in china, and how to remove the side panel 

 

please if you have info about it at least the manufacturer let me know

Are there any barcodes? model numbers? anything? sometimes they're inscribed on the metal of the inside of the cases. That may help you find it

Those cases never had a name as such and it is just a generic case that was cheap and looked like a compaq/IBM at the time. lol gone are those days when everyone's colour scheme was black or beige.

I would double check. As this is probably your last hope.

Can't tell if it's just rubbed off or just a poor quality photo? Can you type out what it says?

Well, all generic cases in the 90's were very similar, but it had the same front panel removal mechanism.
